Trillium’s cofounders previously said they expect to offer about a half-dozen beers on tap, including hoppy beers like Fort Point Pale Ale, as well as barrel-aged sours.

The list of draft beers offered at the open-air garden will update daily, and can be found on the brewery’s Twitter feed.

Trillium’s beers are known for their soft, juicy qualities, beer aficionado Gary Dzen says, and have earned the outfit acclaim. In January, the website RateBeer ranked Trillium the third-best brewery in the world.

Plans for the beer garden were announced in mid-April. The Greenway Conservancy solicited bids for the project from brewers, food truck operators, and restaurant groups before selecting Trillium, which has breweries in both Canton and nearby Fort Point.

The conservancy, a nonprofit agency that is slated to lose 40 percent of its budget when its contract with the state expires June 30, is hoping profits from the beer garden will help offset the $2 million annual shortfall.

Michael Nichols, chief of staff for the conservancy, previously told the Globe that the beer garden will be modeled after similar spaces in other cities.

“It’s a contemporary park in a city that has a lot of historic parks,” Nichols said of the eight-year-old Greenway. “We’re trying to be a little different.”
